Welcome to Lurcher Link

The aim of this forum is to HELP LURCHERS IN DISTRESS... and the purpose
of Lurcher Link is to act as a point of contact for rescues, dog wardens,
vets, stray centres and the public.

Many Lurchers are destroyed each week
because stray pounds are full and local rescues have no room to take any
in. Yet in other parts of the country people are looking for Lurchers to
rehome and because of this we act as a kind of "Dating Agency" for
Lurchers, trying to find the right dog for the right family, from ANY
rescue, to make space for other Lurchers to come into rescue and to
save these dogs from being pts. We will also act as advisors to people
who are newcomers to Lurchers; have behavioural problems with their dogs
or just need someone to discuss problems with.

We are a liberal bunch
and this forum was created with freedom of speech in mind by people who
love Lurchers and the Lurcher world and wish to make a difference to their
fate. What we are is a motley collection of people who love Lurchers and
because we love Lurchers we respect each other's viewpoints.
We may not agree with each other but we don't seek to silence opposing
viewpoints or insist that our way is the only one.

Because of this we
do have a lot of knowledge about living with and working Lurchers and
running dogs and we do like to learn from each other. Oh and tell
the odd joke or two. So welcome to the forum
